Walk In The Light
By: Aaron Pratt
Series: (All)
To walk in the light of Christ is to have fellowship with other believers, with God, and Christ, which brings about a zeal for Christ that cannot be contained. It produces joy in the life of believers and shows a continued progression toward holiness. It first requires us to be cleansed from sin, practice the truth and aim for holiness, have fellowship with other believers, and realize the value of the cleansing blood of Christ. It means confessing our sins to the one who can and does forgive but does not dishonor the Lord by excusing sin or using God's forgiveness as a license.
Scripture: 1 John 1:1-2:6

Dec 3, 2023Distinct Because There’s A DifferenceSeries: The Book of RomansThere are distinct characteristics of Christians that are the natural outworking of the Christian life. While we still battle indwelling sin, live in a fallen world, and are constantly tempted by Satan, Christ gives us the foundations for living that give us the ability to live in a way that honors him. No one or nothing is more central to a Christian than Jesus Christ and obeying, pleasing, and serving him as a living sacrifice. We are not to be conformed to this world or the things in it and should not count on these things to bring us our purpose, joy, or meaning. Be transformed by the renewing of your mind and view everything through the lens and objective truth of the Bible.Scripture: Isaiah 55:8-13, Romans 12:1-8

- Nov 27, 2023Legalism vs Holiness
Nov 27, 2023Legalism vs HolinessBy: Luke GriffoSeries: (All)Just as in Colossae, those who tend toward legalism are characterized by focusing on works, adding to the law being concerned with external appearances, and imposing those same things on others. It often leads to despair and frustration and is not a result of what Christ has done in us but trying to add to what he’s already done. The other temptation is to minimize the law and obedience to it, which also must be avoided. We ought to be concerned with holiness, which is always concerned with how God sees us rather than others and is a matter of the heart. It’s about applying the law of God to all of life, where there are no loopholes or corners to be cut. Though it doesn’t preclude a strong confrontation of sin since we are to be concerned with the holiness of God, it’s ready to give others the benefit of the doubt and is quick to forgive repentant hearts as Christ forgave us.Scripture: Psalm 119:97-104, Colossians 2:16-3:17

Nov 19, 2023The Savior of AllSeries: The Book of RomansAlthough most civilizations throughout history are extinct, the Jews have been held together throughout, and God is not done with them as a people. As unfaithful as the Jews were in their rejection of the Messiah, his covenant promise remains that all of those whom he calls will be saved. Nobody is beyond his reach, and his promises and plan will not fail. Just as the Gentiles were very far away 2000 years ago, the Gospel turned the world upside down, and the same will be true for the Jews in that a great multitude of them will be saved at the appointed time.Scripture: Deuteronomy 7:1-11, Romans 11:25-26
